he defends only like 4-5 second rounds in challengers now till the end of the year the only points that would drop (oh and passing kitz quallies)

as for US, he played a bit over there, i believe he had a contract with IMG or how it's called... no financial support but they got him a few practise sessions there (he even hit with roddick then if i recall well) and a WC to some mug event but he got beaten quite badly, but it was a few years ago too and he was not ready for ATP

plus he was junior USO finalist... i watched him at USO quallies in 2009 and i'd say he played very well, just it was mental that he lost to devvarman in the last round of quallies, got completely blocked because there was rain and they had to wait extra few hours for the match to take place, so he didn't handle pressure

but it had nothing to do with the surface

Great, that is really good to hear...Thank you...I am glad he can perform on hard courts...And yes, he only has like 44 points to defend the rest of the year...He should definitely finish inside the Top 100 for sure...I really hope he does well on the hard courts in the US...He has alot of confidence right now and he needs to keep the momentum strong and move up the rankings!

I hope that is enough practice on hard courts going into the USO A month off seems like a really long time...Hope he is match tough in Winston Salem Are there hard courts in Poland for him to practice on?

What is Jerzy's next event? He isn't scheduled for any Challengers in the next three weeks...Is he going to play the 500 event in DC during OG? Qualifying, perhaps? What events is he scheduled for in the US?....Congrats again to Jerzy Jagger...Really impressive from him the last few months...Simply outstanding

BTW, if he plays in Cincinnati, I am going to go see him...I live not far from where that event takes place...Can someone let me know...Would be so excited to see Jerzy in Cincinnati, Ohio

Has he ever played any events in the US? How familiar is he with the US?
